Posted by Todd Church on

Saturdays, 8:00 am. The MJ 100k is a little longer and faster than the Middle of the Road Ride.

That means you can prove it at the City Limit road signs—like the olden days.

Mid-Century Ride

Posted by Todd Church on

The Mid-Century is our popular, 50+ road ride. Maintaining the spirit of a ride, not a Saturday morning race, the Mid-Century rolls out and maintains a steady 2x2 pace. There may be a few occasions when the ride speeds up, but it will always regroup soon after. This is a no drop ride, but riders should always bring a cell phone, flat repair kit and the ability to change a tube.
